Thoughts, Tips, Ideas and Tricks to live your best life

I pulled out my drawing book and pastels... and drew my default - a heart portrait. Big surprise.... BUT what came out was actually a surprise to me. Its the reflection of a minor success!

Earlier today I was meditating and ended up removing a lot of chords. What are chords you might ask? Chords are an energetic connection that you hold with someone else. If they are wanted you usually don't notice they are there. If they are not wanted you will feel something physically there. And when you look at that area, someone will come to mind. That is the person that you share an energetic connection or attachment to. Aka chords. To me it feels like a lingering ache that you've had for so long you don't really notice it anymore. Anyway during my meditation, a lingering pain was in my heart, but nothing was coming up, so I decided to remove some chords (see Teal's video below). It feels very weird, like you are removing a part of yourself. But I asked my guides to help me, and the chords took up almost half of my heart. I couldn't believe it. I will most likely need to come back to this during another meditation. But once I was finished I filled myself up with as much emerald green gold and love that I could, then I drank a lot of water. I opened my eyes and let myself come back.

Speed up six hours later, to right now, and it turns out I drew my true authentic heart! I couldn't believe what came out when I started drawing. A feeling of love and relief filled me as I smiled and continued to happily finish my heart. To me this heart is the color of my energy, I'm a lavender purple. But I am constantly changing, and so the mixing of the colors shows the dynamic movement that is my nature, while still staying in the purple family. I know this may sound weird to some of you, but this heart is accurate to who I really am. I'm so happy that I am lined up with my truth! This is an emotional and spiritual victory for me, and I wanted to share it! I hope that my being vulnerable and exposing a pretty "weird" experience gives your encouragement to try this out.

If you are new to meditation I really love guided meditations. There are tons on youtube. If you already meditate, I'd like to encourage you to keep going. I know that sometimes really painful stuff can come up, but I promise there are wonderful unimaginable things on the other side. Though my journey will never be "finished" my life is changing for the better in ways I could not have imagined, and the same is waiting for you too. Share your heart portrait below :)
